Hmm, maybe the complaining about Arizona and definitely about California will stop now. That 1st district is ridiculous. That being said the rest of the map is ok.
God, no.

On both the first and the third sentence.

We deserve this after getting screwed in Arizona.

The 2nd district makes perfect sense.  All those I-5 cities belong in one seat, the rural areas belong in one seat. 
5% of that district's population are rural.

Yeah, it's not as if Republicans could risk letting a court draw the congressional map.

They haven't posted detailed demographics yet... But Wapato, Toppenish, Harrah, White Swan, etc. are not in the district. Looks like it still voted 57% or so Rossi.

In fact it looks like even the most Hispanic part of Yakima (the city) isn't in the district, so I wouldn't be surprised if this district was actually >60% Rossi.

Ha! For a second there I thought there was an actual compromise. But nope. The Republicans won. Again.
Ouch.

We are talking of the new 8th, right?
